PV String Access Detection
PV string access detection applies to large-scale commercial ground PV plants with PV
strings facing the same direction.
In AC or DC power limiting scenarios:
If the PV string access type has not been identified, PV string access type will be
displayed as Disconnection. The PV string access type can be identified only when
the solar inverters restore to the non-power limiting state and the current of all
connected PV strings reaches the startup current.
If the PV string access type has been identified, when a certain PV string connected
to the 2-in-1 terminals is lost, no alarm will be generated. If a certain PV string
connected to the 2-in-1 terminals is restored, the access type cannot be identified.
You can determine whether both 2-in-1 PV strings are restored only when the PV
string current reaches Startup current for 2-in-1 detection.
After setting the parameters, you can go to the Running Info. tab page to check whether
the PV string connection status is normal.
Table 6-2 Parameter description
Parameter
Parameter Description
PV String Access Detection
PV String Access Detection is set to Disable by default. After solar inverters
are connected to the power grid, set PV String Access Detection to Enable.
Startup current
When the current of all connected PV strings reaches the preset value, the PV
string access detection function is enabled.
NOTE
Startup current setting rules:
Startup current = I
sc
(S
tc
) x 0.6 (rounded up). For details about I
sc
(S
tc
), see the PV
module nameplate.
Default startup current (5 A): applicable to the scenarios where the short-circuit
current I
sc
(S
tc
) is greater than 8 A for the monocrystalline and polycrystalline PV
modules.
Startup current for 2-in-1
detection
When the current of a PV string reaches Startup current for 2-in-1
detection, the PV string is automatically identified as 2-in-1.
You are advised to retain the default settings.
PV string N access type
NOTE
N is the DC input terminal
number of the solar inverter.
Set this parameter based on the type of the PV string connected to DC input
terminal N of the solar inverter. Currently, the options are as follows:
Automatic identification (default value), Disconnection, Single PV string, and
2-in-1.
You are advised to retain the default value. If the value is incorrectly set, the
PV string access type may be incorrectly identified and alarms may be
generated by mistake for the PV string access status.
6.3.6.2 Tracking System
If a PV string uses a tracking system with a controller, set tracking system parameters on the
Tracking System tab page.
